Ages 5 & Up: Containing medium-sized pieces with the occasional angular edge, these lightweight to sturdy crafts may require some assembly such as stringing beads or gluing items to create a 3-dimensional project.

Nice easy craft
This is the second year I have ordered this craft for my Sunday Faith Formation Class of 3rd Graders. It is easy and the kids like being able to put their own ideas of what they are thankful for on the cross. It is simple, yet thought provoking on their part. I will most likely get it next year too.

Thankful Cross
This was a quick and simple activity that my 5th graders really enjoyed. When they finished I displayed them all on the wall outside our classroom door. Many other teachers stopped to look and had very positive comments!

Love it
I purchased these to give away to the parents of our kids in our church ministry. This makes a great "at home" converstion starter and the quality is great.
This is my second time ordering this product!

easy craft for kids
We used this craft in my pre K Sunday School class at Thanksgiving time to teach the meaning of thankfulness. The craft was very easy for the kids to glue together. We wrote in one of the squares something that each child was thankful for, and then they took it home to finish with loved ones.

Good activity for Sunday School class
I did this with my 2nd grade Sunday School class and they enjoyed it. Some of the kits were missing pieces but some of the other kits had extra pieces so it all evened out. I did not think the string would stick to the foam by gluing it as recommended so I used a hole puncher and threaded the string through the hole and tied a knot instead.

Great Thanksgiving Craft
Great Thanksgiving craft for any age in Sunday School. One suggestion would be to use something other than Elmer's glue on the pieces - they don't stick as well on the foam pieces, but super easy and fun for all!

5th year purchasing "I am thankful"
I have been using the "I am thankful" craft for my 3rd grade Sunday School for the past five years. This is very age appropriate for 9 & 10 year olds, boys or girls. It is a nice Thanksgiving craft they can bring home and share with their families.

Fun project for variety of ages
This foam cross project was enjoyed by a variety of ages from 2-12 in our Children's Church classroom. The kits were as I expected - the printing wasn't perfect and the squares weren't exact. Be sure to order extra to be certain everyone has a nice kit.

Fun activity
Easy to assemble and the kids loved the finished project.

Good idea, but could be better
The ease of use of this product is awesome! I also love how it is more religiously oriented than always making a turkey with the things you're thankful for.
With that said, the quality of this product could be better. I opened each package of pieces I was going to use to make sure I had everything I needed. Unfortunately, I found that a few of the packages were missing pieces, and one was missing the printing "I am thankful for..." on one of the yellow pieces. I had to use half of the pieces in a set to fix the sets with missing or defective pieces, which meant I had one less set I could use with my students. I would buy this product again, but I would make sure I order extra sets in case I have the same problem again.
